f
your
speakers
t
o make
sure
all
are working and moving in the right direction
–
forward! Sometimes, when you daisy chain two cabinets, you will note a lack of bass
response. Typically,
this
means that one of the cabinets is out of phase and its
speakers
are moving backward when they should be moving forward. If one cabinet
or
one
speaker is moving backwards when the other moves forward, they will cancel
each other out. You can readily notice this when a single cabinet has more bass and
better response then when two are connected. Here’s how to verify phase. Take a ¼”
cable.
I
nsert one side int
o a cabinet and touch the other tip of the ¼” jack to the “+”
of
a 9-volt bat
t
ery
and t
he shaf
t to the “-” of the battery. The connected speaker
should move forward when this connection is made. If it does, the cabinet is in
phase. If it moves backwards, you have a cabinet that’s wired out of phase. The
problem can be easily corrected by a speaker technician.
